Arm Lift: Procedures, Risks, and Results
An arm lift, also known as brachioplasty, is a surgical procedure that removes excess skin and fatty tissue on the upper arms to create a tighter, slimmer contour. This procedure is usually considered in the following cases:
Loosening or sagging of the skin: Over time and due to factors such as weight loss, aging or genetics, the skin on the upper arms can lose its elasticity and become saggy. An arm lift can help tighten the skin and create a smoother appearance.
Fat Accumulation: When excess fat accumulates on the upper arms that diet and exercise cannot reduce, an arm lift can be considered to remove the excess fatty tissue and improve arm contour.
Aesthetic Concerns: If a person has aesthetic concerns about the shape and contour of their upper arms, an arm lift can help achieve a proportioned and aesthetically pleasing arm shape.
There are several arm lift techniques, including a traditional brachioplasty with a horizontal incision down the inside of the arm, or a minimally invasive technique using smaller incisions and an endoscopic approach. The choice of technique depends on various factors such as the extent of skin sagging and the individual needs of the patient.
As with any surgical procedure, there are certain risks and complications associated with an arm lift. These include infection, bleeding, scarring, temporary swelling, and temporary changes in how your arm feels.
